Not since the release of "When Harry Met Sally" have I been so intrigued by the cast of Romantic Comedy and as subsequently pleased when viewing the released film on the big screen. ( I don't often go ROMCOMs in the theater; they work just as well on my home tv.)

The romantic triangle Cast of "She Came To Me" is led by Peter Dinkladge (as a creatively blocked operatic composer Steven Lauddem) his wife and his psychiatrist Anne Hathaway (as an obsessive compulsive Patricia Jessup-Lauddem) and the delightful Marisa Tomei at her deadpan comedic best as a Tug Boat Captain who falls for the damaged composer. It's right up there with "My Cousin Vinny" as a favorite performance -- even if her character is not as devastatingly funny.

Rebecca Miller both directed her own script and did an absolutely pitch perfect job at both. It's the seventh film she has helmed. It's a work worthy of Nora Ephron and reason enough for me to examine the six works that came before.

This film doesn't hit you over the head with obvious and cheap laughs. It could be considered a dark situational comedy. The characters reacting to family problems and people outside of their inner circle and beyond their sphere of influence.

There are some surprising plot twists and character revelations that explain and challenge each member of the romantic triangle. Anne Hathaway in particular has a brilliant scene with one of her patients and she literally closes the film with a beautific smile.

"She Came to Me" is a film not to be missed. I will be watching it again; soon.

This film gives me hope that there are still writers/actors/producers out there who understand what I need in a movie. I'm NOT the demographic anymore. So Gems like this are hard for me to find.

The film is unique! With a tugboat, (with female captain) opera theater, (with composer) and a psychiatrist with O. C. D.

I LOVED the characters. Imperfect but well intended characters who each come to a greater awareness of what is needed to be more fulfilled and happy.

This film has heart. It's subject matter about real emotions set in a quirky set of circumstances is very relatable and heartwarming. Reminiscent of good ole fashioned story telling that touches the soul.

Something I desperately needed.

P. S./added edit.....I was unfamiliar with the director, Rebecca Miller. Without making any connections, I had actually seen one of her movies years ago that I thought was brilliant with Daniel Day Lewis. And am now, halfway thru her 2016 movie. She has a very clear point of view. And it's very relatable to me as a woman who has said and thought some of the same ideas that Ms. Miller explores in her movies. I'm such a fan!!! Looking forward to catching up on her past films and hope she has more coming!

It's a romantic comedy-drama set in current times in Brooklyn, New York. It follows the experiences and interactions of two completely different families and a tugboat captain.

Steven Lauddem (Peter Dinklage) is an insecure composer facing a deadline for a new opera with no inspiration for a storyline. He's married to Patricia (Anne Hathaway), a therapist who's a clean freak and a closet devout Catholic. She has a bright 18-year-old son, Julian (Evan Ellison), from her first marriage. She had separated from Julian's father, but he had subsequently died. They have a dog named Levi.

Magdalena Szyskowski (Joanna Kulig) is a Polish who works as a cleaning lady. She has a 16-year-old daughter, Tereza (Harlow Jane), from her first husband. She is not married to the man she's living with, Trey Ruffa (Brian d'Arcy James), but he has adopted Tereza. Trey is a court stenographer and an extreme Civil War reenactor.

We learn early on that Julian and Tereza are boyfriend-girlfriend and that Magdalena is the new cleaning lady for Steven and Patricia. None of the adults are happy when they learn of Julian & Tereza's relationship, especially Trey. We also discover that Steven suddenly gets inspiration for his opera from an encounter with tugboat captain Katrina Trento (Marisa Tomei).

"She Came to Me" follows the characters' interactions through three love stories, two of which are surprising but are clearly telegraphed as the plot unfolds. All the primary actors are excellent, especially Dinklage, Tomei, and Ellison. The story is clever and fun.
